Notice the two sets of tape stripes and some kind of covering up the middle of the hood. Think about it. Comments?? Honest, I'm only drinking coffee.

Firebird86 ◊ 2008-02-23 04:05	You convinced me Dave, close up pic could be a 1953 Pontiac (1st year w/o a split windshield) that had the center chrome trim on the hood that, like you said, was covered up. comments? -- Last edit: 2008-02-23 04:11:20
